Description
The detection of neutrinos emitted in the CNO reactions in the Sun is one of the
ambitious goals of Borexino Phase-II.
A measurement of CNO neutrinos would be a milestone in astrophysics, and would allow to solve serious issues in current solar models.
A precise measurement of the rate of neutrinos from the pep reaction would allow to
investigate neutrino oscillations in the MSW transition region.
I will review pep and CNO solar neutrino physics, the measurement in Borexino Phase-I and the perspectives for the new phase.
